CBEUCI's biomolecular engineering and biotechnology research explores processes across molecular, cellular, tissue, and organism levels while innovating new bioreactor systems for biochemical applications. Our active investigations span synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, protein engineering, biomaterials, drug delivery systems, biophotonics, cellular analytics and imaging techniques, bioreaction engineering, biological systems modeling, and cell/tissue engineering. Leveraging our multi-scale comprehension of biomolecular mechanisms, we create advanced technologies for molecular synthesis, health therapies, and analytical devices capable of cellular examination and multi-scale functional imaging.
Additionally, through collaboration with UCI's Stem Cell Research Center, we maintain an interdisciplinary stem cell tissue engineering program that unites chemical engineers with experts in cellular biology, biophysics, neuroscience, medicine, materials science, and biomedical engineering. Within this initiative, CBE pioneers innovative multifunctional biomaterials, performs foundational studies on cell-biomaterial interactions in vitro, designs diagnostic platforms to monitor cell differentiation and disease progression, engineers implantable tissue constructs, and develops nanomaterial solutions for therapeutic delivery and vaccine development.
